Maybe we could have a checkbox that says look in "Only look in Project Folder" or something.

This is already implemented in the 2018.05 release.
Please refer to the latest release notes here:
https://www.bandlab.com/products/cakewalk/whats-new

Grazie mille! Vielen dank. i don't visit the forum often, but when I do, I am glad I did. Took a quick look at the release notes and sensing a tack to address specific user issues over "strategic marketing"? 

Dear staff, I sincerely think that Cakewalk is needing a clear website. No more these two or three places at the same time to know something about (www.cakewalk.com, cakewalk.bandlab.com, www.bandlab.com/products/cakewalk). For us who are aware of this particular stage of the software may mean little problem, but for new potential users it's a labyrinth. Just my opinión. Thanks for all you are doing.

What's new?

• No matter what plug-ins or bundles you’ve bought in the past – anything that worked with SONAR before will work with Cakewalk by BandLab and should integrate seamlessly.
•  

 

Hopefully the roadmap removes the requirement to install legacy versions of Sonar to install the plugins.
 
I was surprised I couldn't do a fresh install of CbB and then use the installers for say the Engineering Plugins, as it says it would not install due to a lack of a compatible program.  Once I installed Platinum, it wasn't a problem, but seems like that is ~500 megs of wasted Hard Drive space if the goal is to use the new Bandlab version.

Well the simple answer is that the Engineering Plugins were only licensed to install in the presence of a certain licensed version of Sonar.  Remove Sonar and the installer will not work.  Nothing that CbB does can change that fact. 
 

unless they re-license them

They are two separate products by two different companies.  The legacy Sonar installers will never be updated.
 
But at least CbB will let you continue to integrate your Sonar bundle with the new Cakewalk.

The question is why they didn't include that as part of the code of the new program.  We didn't have to re-install the Engineering suite every-time Sonar had a monthly update.  Thus my question as to why they require a Platinum install.  Some of the packages seem to only contain Cakewalk IP, which they own.  

2018.05 BUILD 20 - takes forever to load.
The previous build loaded in seconds this one  - minutes. 
Had no problems with previous builds.  Is there a way to down grade?

Thanks Scook. I submitted a request.

Good day all,
First,
Happy father's day to all the fathers.
Second,
I want to give many kudo's to the CbB development team, especially to Noel and Jonathan, who stuck with me to the final outcome. They determined that the software (BA) was not writing to where it needed to be. After many tries it would not leave 'demo mode'. After realignment  of some things on comp I was ready to try anything. The last BA update link was sent to me with no great expectations, but WoW....there appeared to be a different load look about it. Melodyne was not permanently checked and grayed. Load asked questions never seen before. Took hardly anytime to download, and everything seems to be fine. I haven't had the chance to see if it runs through the paces yet. It took almost all day to load all things I needed. Looking forward to the future with CbB.
Thanks, once again, to the crew

Maybe like the standard already set 30 years ago by the International Standards Organization (ISO-8601) ?
https://www.iso.org/iso-8601-date-and-time-format.html
 

Cool suggestion!  I'm already down with UTC (Coordinated Universal Time), but reading up on the ISO-8601 at Wikipedia finally cleared up this related ambiguity for me. 
 
How should midnight be represented?
 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601

Midnight is a special case and may be referred to as either "00:00" or "24:00". The notation "00:00" is used at the beginning of a calendar day and is the more frequently used. At the end of a day use "24:00". "2007-04-05T24:00" is the same instant as "2007-04-06T00:00"

 
I can sleep well tonight knowing that has been resolved. 

So if we have to reinstall Windows and want to re-install Cakewalk, we can never have the engineering suite installed again?

For some reason, since installing Cakewalk by BandLab, some old projects will no longer open in CbB or Platinum. I try to open and it just spins and spins and never opens. Anyone else notice this?
